Pavao Skalić. Theses on Worlds and Sciences

U članku se tumači Skalićevo djelo Conclusiones mille quinquaginta tres u horizontu njegove enciklopedijske i sinkretističke ideje znanosti i u odnosu na mišljenje Pica della Mirandola. U Konkluzijama Skalić želi sažeti sveukupnost znanja diferencirajući ga na teze o znanostima. Pritom se Skalić u znanost pokazuje kao već uvijek prisutno (iako beskonačno) znanje koje se povijesno regulira korisnošću. S obzirom na tradirani pojam znanosti čini se da se u Skalića izgubila ideja »polaganja računa« ili izvedenosti, »egzaktnosti« znanja znanosti. Znanost je nešto povijesno varijabilna u tom smislu da se iz sveukupnosti mogućeg uvijek realizira ono neposredno korisno.The paper expounds Skalić\u27s work Conclusiones mille quinquaginta tres in the context of his encyclopedic and syncretistic concept of science and in relation to the thought of Pico della Mirandala. Skalić\u27s Conclusions were written with the intention of summarizing the totality of knowledge classified as theses on worlds or sets of beings on the one hand and as theses on sciences on the other, sciences being defined as the always present (though infinite) knowledge regulated by its usability in history. In view of the traditional concept of science, it seems that Ska1ić abandoned the idea of rendering of accounts or deducibility, exactness of knowledge. Science is historically variable in the sense that only the usable is realized from the totality of possibilities
